I think it looks good. I wouldn't add formal in.

I like the second way better. But it sounds good to me!

Re: INVITE WORDING... need your approval!

I just like the second way better - more traditional to me and thats how mine is!!

wouldn't add the formal thingy!

ETA: I also think it depends on who is paying....I know some people want whoever paid to do the hosting......like if both parents paid, his parents might want to be listed first also, in which case you go with #1.............

etc



ETAA: Also, I personally don't think the reception address is necesary since that will be on your reception card insert thing.....if you aren't having a reception card insert, then add it to the invite.........its not necessary to put it on the invitation if there is one

Are you having a formal reception? If you are then I would add that in if you're hoping people will be a little dressier.

If it's more formal I would go with option 2 if not I like option 1 better.

And def add the reception location!

Oh I forgot... I think my parents said this was unnecessary for them. My Dad is technically a Doc (of sociology), so originally I Had Dr. Joseph Txxxxxxxx and Ms. Nancy Wxxxxxxx and they both said it was unnecessary.

I'll discuss with Steph again, but we might leave it out.

2 things
#1- the first makes it seem like both fams are hosting and the 2nd makes it seem like ur fam is hosting

#2- two thousand ten looks better to me than two thousand and ten

Otherwise, looks good!

I think the second one is for if your parents are paying.

I like the first one better... unless your parents are paying then numero dos

You have too many capitalized letters. you're not supposed to capitalize just because it is the start of a new line. Only proper nouns.
